Haven't you seen the [I believe] Jalopnik or TTAC report a month ago saying it's not selling?

They can't give them away. Motor Trend reported earlier last week that generous lease deals are being offered on them.

I predicted this to the tee. Aside from driving dynamics and styling, the Giulia is a highly-flawed vehicle in very facet. Interior design and fit and finish are mediocre, tech is mediocre, reliability is less than mediocre, poor residuals, etc. I've seen several them in real life (I spend a lot of time in the metro Detroit area) and while they look nice, they are absolutely tiny relative to the German competition; that doesn't help sales either.

Automotive journalists loved the recent Cadillacs too, yet all their sedans are among the Top 10 slowest selling vehicles in America. Journalists don't speak for the consumer.
